How to enter Pinout View

[VasileiosChristianidis]

I made a new project by importing an .ioc file. 

When the project opened/created, I was introduced into pinout view of the MCU.

While I was there, the software (Stm32CubeIDE) got updated, asked me to restart to finish the update.

I accept the restart.

After the restart, I open my project

If I double click my .ioc file, it just opens the file with txt editor:

I do not know how to enter pinout view again.

Obviously, I have tried looking on all the tabs/options, right clicking everywhere. It should be something easy, I just missed it.

hello @VasileiosChristianidis  and welcome to ST community
I see that you are using our new STM32CubeIDE

On the STM32CubIDE V2.0.0, the STM32CubeMX plug-in has been removed. So, the .ioc file need to be opened by STM32CubeMX.

Best Regards.

CubeIDE v2.0.0 no longer has the CubeMX functionality integrated:

You will have to use the separate, standalone CubeMX application:
